Esther Baker has waived her right to anonymity to make a series of allegations about repeated assaults in the 1980s and 90s, which she claims may have also involved a Lord and a judge.

Ms Baker, now aged 32, said the alleged abuse of her and other children was filmed and carried out by men from different parts of the country.

Police would stand guard while the abuse took place and sometimes even joined it, she claims.

The accused politician is said to be from the current political era. His name has been passed to police.

MP Tom Watson today called for a 'comprehensive investigation' to be carried out. Staffordshire Police said they had already interviewed Ms Baker and would continue doing so this week.
